>anyways i forgot to mention why ukiyoe is so important in art history-it's a print art, carved in woodblocks and meant for mass printing. because of this nature, the colour palette is limited, which creates a striking visual effect. these prints were used as wrapping paper for pottery and ended up in europe.
>this coincided with the invention of the camera-and artists realised painting stuff as realistically as possible is plain retardation. as they looked for alternatives, japanese art and its techniques caught the attention of people like van gogh and monet, who were real fans of ukiyoe.
>they realised our eyes don't view irl as is; the lights are distorted, and they tried to capture the IMPRESSION of scenary, using bleeding, deep colors, and later it would look more and more wilder. normalfags and critics didn't like how blurry it looked, so initially they were commercially unsuccessful, but over time people began to appreciate it.
>modernism is both a continuation and departure from impressionism, as people found many different ways of radical expression-the stuff i kept posting itt is italian futurism. unlike many other modernist artists who hated advancement of technology, futurists embraced it, they loved how fast and advanced our society has become. they celebrated the beauty of machinery, factories, aeroplanes, trains, destruction and war. look how dynamic and cool they are. because of this they are closely related to italian fascists who also like war and weapons. this trend died when you know, wwii happened and italy got bombed so people no longer thought war was le good
>on the topic of chinese art-i don't know much about them, did they do anything of significance? anything? kek
All that to completely miss the fact that they drew a cross eyed nipper making a goofy face and it's treated like high art.
Yeah, HIGH art.
As in whoever drew it was HIGH.
As in HIGH on the bad art scale.
I don't make weed jokes.
